check the things I've pointed out in pics. either a test light or volt meter will work on the fusible links.

I'm very curious to know if this issue was resolved. I have exactly the same vehicle (same year and mileage also), and have had the same issue for quite a few months now. I did check the condition of my battery with a hydrometer today and all cells seemed OK. I cleaned the battery terminals too. They were pretty clean already. I suppose I will be checking the fuses indicated in the schematics posted by hmac300, thanks.

It was the Body Control Module that had to be changed
